Sincerely,

Ahmed Hadad

Are there more details needed to figure out what is wrong in this case?

Please create a work item for this issue.

The problem is the icon reference to a plugin resource, and there is no
protocol handler for 'platform' in the plain java environment.

I have opened the workitem. Thanks.

Is there a workaround that will allow me to get a reference to the
IWorkItemClinet object?

Telling from the code in LinkTypeRegistry, the exception is only logged
but not thrown, so your code should work despite the log entry.

Can you please post some sample code that shows how to get the reference
this way? Thanks.
